This is extremely exciting for me. I started writing a toy application for my iPhone using SwiftUI a few months ago and have been very impressed by Swift (coming from C#). So far, SwiftUI has felt exactly like what I wished XAML would become.

The documentation and error messages are a complete disaster though (https://nooverviewavailable.com/)

Regarding error messages, which Xcode version are you on? They substantially improved after the Xcode update with an overhauled diagnostics engine. Documentation has been steadily improving, I’ve found that Apple does respond to Feedback Assistant reports about missing overviews and code listings, albeit way slower than I’d like.

I’m generally always on the latest released version. It _has) gotten better, but its still not good enough. For example, having two @Published variables in the same class with the same name causes a crash in the compiler with no pointers to the source.
